The Bricked Pit

This week on the Hate Box, Adam discusses three terrible ideas that movie theaters are testing in an apparent effort to completely misread the customer's tolerance for nonsense.

Hello there, children. Can you say 'podcast'? I knew you could. Our very special friends from the Land of The Bricked Pit have chosen to talk about educational children's television. Josh, Jason, and Adam talk about all the wonders of PBS and other networks who diligently create and bring meaningful, insightful, and educational programing to our youth. They'll share stories from Cl...

Jason likes old movies and dislikes those who don't. Just because it is old or in black & white doesn't meant that it isn't good.

The bulldozers are showing up in the morning to demolish the neighborhood. Kurt unleashed a demonic spider monkey with a laser gun. Chupacabra aliens are landing on the outskirts of town, and all the parents were kidnapped by an evil mad scientist played by that guy who used to do the kitchen appliance commercials. The day can only be saved by the true heroes... kids. That's right, Jason, Adam...

Josh talks about Tim Robinsons sketch comedy show

The book was better. I prefer the original anime over the US live action remake. Playing Battleship was a lot more fun than watching it. Josh, Adam, and Jason discuss those films that just didn't capture the source material 100%. The films themselves may be good, but they just aren't the same as the material that they are drawn from. Hear them discuss movies such as World War Z, the 1998 Godzilla,...

Adam misses Saturday Morning cartoons, and he's pretty sure that you do too. Listen as he pitches his idea for a streaming revival that copies that feeling of watching broadcast TV weekend mornings. His Kickstarter will be linked in the video.

Whether it be the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade, your local Christmas parade with the local high school marching bands, Mardi Gras, or just a buncha people who got drunk and happened to be walking down the street together, everybody loves a parade. That's why Josh and Jason are going to discuss films where parades play an important role and aren't just set pieces. Listen or watch as they talk abo...

If you’re not 5 minutes early, then you’re late for work. Don’t even think about punching out early. You get three 15 minute breaks, so be sure to time your bathroom trips appropriately. We’ve got to get this podcast about films in the workplace out on time. That means everyone from packing to shipping needs to pull their weight so that people can listen to Jason, Adam, and Josh discuss such films...

After Jason talked about Westerns, Josh decided to talk about some less well known sci-fi movies. Check out this dive into the unknown

Instead of our usual dose of hate between regular episodes, Jason gives suggestions for anyone not familiar with the Western genre who may want to give it a try.

It has been foretold that three over opinionated barbarians from the savage lands would start a podcast. Joining them is a stranger from the unknown realm as they discuss sword and sorcery films. Listen to my tale as Jason, Josh, and Adam talk about what constitutes a sword and sorcery film with Cameron from The Green Shirt Podcast and Open Pike Night. Hear the deeds of great battles and wizardry...

Josh can’t shut up about Andor. The best Disney Star Wars show to date. But it almost bricked the pit at the 11th hour.

Join us for a trip down memory lane as we reminisce about our favorite movies from three iconic years: 1993, 2003, and 2013. Our hosts Adam, Josh, and Jason will each share their top picks from each of these years and discuss why they hold a special place in their hearts. Whether you're a film buff or just looking for some recommendations, this episode has something for everyone. Tune in to the Br...

Josh watched Peter Jackson’s doc, Get Back. Should you? Josh has 20 minutes of things to say about it

The clock is counting down to the end of the year. The guys in the Bricked Pit talk about what's happened this year and their hair brained ideas on the future of streaming. Hear them discuss some of their favorite shows this year like Weird: The Al Yankovic Story, Dark Skies, and Old Man for starters. It wouldn't be the Bricked Pit without the guys throwing a little shade at shows like Reacher, We...

Adam takes over the off-week episode and shares one of his favorite holiday traditions with you. 

As you open that Christmas card from your Aunt Edna with the folded five dollar bill inside, you think to your self, "Why don't the people who make these cards also make movies?" Well, they do. Not only do they make movies, their formula has practically become a genre in itself and has been copied dozens of times over. This week Josh, Jason, and Adam each watched a 'Hallmark' Christmas movie or on...

Josh can’t move on from Scorsese and Tarantino’s jabs at Marvel.

You were just going on vacation when you come across a dead body in your hotel room. The cops think that you're the murderer. While they're breathing down your neck, the real killer is getting away. Guess it's a good thing that you're a medical doctor who writes murder mysteries when you're not moonlighting as a private investigator. Josh, Adam, and Jason discuss the mystery genre where normal peo...

Josh watched 2 new films this week. Neither survived the hate box. Random ramblings on My best friends exorcism and Disenchanted. Well, like 10 seconds on Disenchanted. Spoiler: it stinks

Turkey day is almost here. That means food and family. *No, I don't know how long it's been in the oven.* It all comes with a lot of preparation and aggravation. You've got Aunt Stella and her new boyfriend coming by later. The in-laws have threatened to drop by early to 'help out'. And Cousin Oliver has some new and as of yet undisclosed food allergies. *I have no idea. Have you looked in the bot...

Don’t vote. Don’t trust the media. Don’t trust “Internet celebrities” do listen to this based on the salacious title

Footsteps echo through the empty streets illuminated by the dim street lights. You duck into a dark alley to avoid detection by the slow moving police car. You're stuck in a foreign city with enemy agents on your tail and a file full of classified documents and satellite photos. Should you have trusted that seductive stranger? It doesn't matter now. Submarines and missile silos are ready to launch...
